Lilia’s P.O.V.The next morning when I woke up the sun was shining brightly.I look at the clock, and it was hitting twelve.I become shocked thinking I slept till noon.I tried to get up, but I hiss in pain.My whole body was sore as I was sleeping on the floor and my feet were paining as I left my wound untreated.My head was also aching badly.And I was feeling dizzy too.I had nothing after lunch on the last day, so maybe that’s why I was feeling weak.I got up and knock on the door to take a chance, but like last night no one bothered to open it.I thought Ezekiel’s anger must have calmed down after the passing night.But when I remember how angry he wasThe room was a disaster, so I slowly got up and walked toward the bed.Though I didn’t want to share the bed that Ezekiel used my body was retaliating.I needed to lie down before I fall unconscious againSo I walked toward the bed and lean on the headboard tiredly.A few minutes later, someone opened the door, and a maid entered

Damien’s P.O.V.It was noon, and I was standing here in front of the pack house of the Rocky Hill pack.Yes, I am here to meet Lilia’s dad and discuss something important.I know he is alpha here, but all pack decisions must have to approve by Ezekiel according to their deal.I know though he was dealing with this disrespectful position out of desperation it was better for him to agree to this than live a life like an omega.He is alpha by name and I am sure he would be keen to free himself from this problem and gain control of his pack.And I would be delighted to give him a chance to fulfill his wish. After all, I am his soon-to-be son-in-law. Don’t miss the sarcasm in my words, though.He is the only thing that is stopping my mate to come running into my arms and accepting me as her mate. And he is also the reason for my mate’s misfortune.Though this matter will benefit him a lot, I was not happy to give him this satisfaction.But I wanted to make sure nothing can force my mate to

Lilia’s P.O.V.I sat on the floor scared and pulled my leg close to my chest.I hid my face in my knees, and tears started to pull my eyes.I can’t again face him.I don’t want to lose my virginity to a monster.“Lilia, Open the door, baby.” I heard my mom’s voice and look up surprised.It was not Ezekiel.It was my mom who was knocking on the door. I sighed in relief.But why she is here?She didn’t join my Luna ceremony, and neither they would come with no reason here.Did Ezekiel call them? Was he planning to punish them? Or was there some other reason?Did they know what Ezekiel has done with me last night?“Lilia, are you OK? You are making mom worried.” She called again and I get up, wiping my face.I couldn’t hide here all my life.I needed to face the reality, go out and see what was the situation outside.I opened the door and peeked through it like a scared chicken.Mom was standing there alone worriedly.Noticing her standing alone, I opened the door and walk out.I looked

Lilia’s P.O.V.I was watching my mate’s fight, and he was winning perfectly, making Ezekiel taste his own medicine. How dare he break the rules and backstab him?But my father called me inside and though I didn’t want to leave I reluctantly walked inside to meet him.I clearly heard his voice and walked inside the mansion, but couldn’t find him.His voice was coming from a small room, and I followed his voice inside.But when I entered I smelt a pungent smell, and I was feeling dizzy.The room was dark, and I wanted to go out.Before I could realize what was happening, I lost consciousness.When I got up again I was in bed.This bed looked familiar, but it was not Ezekiel’s mansion as much as I remember.There was a splitting headache, and I was still feeling dizzy.But my fear didn’t let me rest.I wanted to find out where I was.The design of this mansion looked vintage like my house in Rocky Hill.I remember my room in Rocky Hill was the exact same layout and got up from bad hurrie

“You want me, right?” I asked, hesitating.I couldn’t understand why he was listening to me, but I wanted to be sure before I take my next step.If he wants me, I have a chance to negotiate.“Of course I want you. I have waited for you all my life. You are my mate,” He replied, and I don’t know what to say.His words look like a lie.What was the mate bond to him? Did he care for it ever?If he would have waited for me, he wouldn’t have taken those Luna as their chosen mate.I didn’t know what is the truth, and what is a lie. I didn’t know if he was the one who murdered them or not.But he has taken them as their Luna. He was ready to move on in his life.If his Luna would be alive, there was no chance for us to know each other as he was already marked by his Luna.When his mark disappeared after Luna’s demise, then his side of the bond get open. Otherwise, he wouldn’t ever recognize me.He didn’t think it was necessary to wait for me.Then how could I believe it when he said he has w
